I used Gemini exclusively via the API but downloaded the app last week for something. Even on max settings, it is ridiculously nerfed!

Unfortunately, even the API variant got RLHF'd pretty hard into being that dumb end-user assistant personality :(

But beside that, I feel like the app variant got worse the day they've had that wwdc-style release thing recently.

Previously it was a sparring partner that could actually keep up. But now it just doesn't.

Truly a shame. And nothing that could be fixed by local models any time soon, given that you need the size for the (cross-)domain knowledge.
